I was almost grown when I first met Lawrence, and I had no idea what a blessing he would be, not just for me, but also for my younger beother & mom. He welcomed us into their home, across the street and spent years loving us simply because we were neighbors. When my brother died in a motorcycle accident, he gave my mom the gift of identifying the motorcycle, so she & my grandmother wouldn't have to. I don't know if Mom ever told him just how much that meant to her. Our paths diverged once I moved out of that house, & especially after Mom moved a few miles away, but whenever I came home for church, he (and Mary & Kevin) were always there, the Arlington family I still had, after Mom was gone.
